Shawna and Michael started out as friends, but soon their relationship grew into something more. After several years together, Michael planned a springtime\u00a0getaway to West Virginia. At the historic Thomas Shepherd Inn<\/a> in Shepherdstown, Michael proposed, and Shawna, of course, said yes! We celebrated the occasion with an engagement session at the inn and other lovely places around Shepherdstown…<\/p>\n

In mid-August, it was time for their wedding day! They chose a Friday evening ceremony at Shade Trees and Evergreens<\/a> just outside Frederick, Maryland and were blessed with beautiful weather.<\/p>\n
